Description
Ashmore House is a mid-18th century house located on East Street in Long Buckby. It is constructed of ironstone ashlar and features a slate roof with three 19th-century brick stacks positioned along the ridge and at the ends. The house is two stories tall with an attic and has a three-window range. On the first story, there are three 20th-century iron casement windows, while the ground story has two similar windows, all with wood lintels above. The central door is a late 19th-century part-glazed design with an overlight and a wood lintel above. The corners of the building are accentuated with quoins. The roof includes a 20th-century skylight and has coped gables with kneelers. Inside, the house features stone flagged floors, an open fireplace, and beams, some of which are stop-chamfered. There are 18th-century wood-panelled doors and an 18th-century staircase with stick balusters, along with a 19th-century linenfold panel dado.
